Unforgettable Alexandra from “Moscow does not believe in tears” turned 63, how the actress lives
Natalia Vavilova is rarely seen in public. The once-famous Soviet actress has not acted in films for a long time and leads a reclusive lifestyle. A woman with a difficult fate deliberately avoids contact with the press. What happened in the life of the radiant Alexandra from the film “Moscow does not believe in tears” and why we will not see her on the big screens again.

Her fate was predetermined: her parents wanted the girl to follow in her father’s footsteps and work in the Foreign Ministry. But sometimes in life a lot is decided by chance. The actress has been able to see this more than once.
Vavilova’s family lived near Mosfilm. As a young schoolgirl, Natalia once caught the eye of film studio workers. A conversation ensued in which the girl was offered to work in the frame. She refused and said she would think about it, but soon forgot about it. A couple of days later, an assistant director came to school.

Natalia's parents thought it was a good experiment, so they didn't mind. So the 14-year-old schoolgirl first appeared on the big screens in the drama “Such High Mountains”.
The directors of the film studio liked the acting of the girl very much. Soon she began to be invited to shoot more and more often. But Natalia’s parents didn’t like it. They were afraid that their daughter would want to become an actress. They just banned her from filming.

Secretly from her parents, she came to the set, while attending diplomatic courses. But soon my mother and father found out. The girl was forbidden to go anywhere except to study. She couldn't even talk on the phone at home. All the calls were now answered by her mother.
The career of Natalia Vavilova Vavilova could end there. However, no one began to fight for her, but Alexei Batalov himself. Together with Vladimir Menshov, he came to Natalia’s home to talk to her parents in person. The actor convinced them that her natural talent should be developed. She is a nugget with incredible acting skills.
Under pressure from the beloved actor, the father and mother melted and allowed their daughter to continue shooting in the new film. So Vavilova starred in the cult film “Moscow does not believe in tears”. During the filming of this film, she met her future husband, director Samvel Gasparov.
The crushing success of this film convinced Natalia’s parents that she needed to enter a theater university. After graduating from school, the girl submitted documents to VGIK. During training, she was lucky to star in several more films. After graduation, Vavilova's career continued to develop. But it was destroyed by an accident.
During the filming of the film “Nikolai Podvoisky”, the actress fell from her horse and broke her spine. The director promised to wait for Natalia to recover, but he lied and found a replacement for her a week later. Physical pain and moral devastation were what Vavilova felt during that period of her life. To help his wife cope with all adversity, Samvel Gasparov took her abroad.

Personal life of actress Natalia never became a mother. She was pregnant when she fell from a horse. But she lost her baby and could not get pregnant again. The actress has never commented on the subject. She gave her love to her husband’s daughter from her first marriage, her children and her nephews.
In marriage with Gasparov, Natalia was really happy. The couple got a country house, and Vavilova completely immersed in everyday life, engaged in gardening and pleased her husband with his favorite Caucasian dishes. After a while, the house had to be sold. The family moved to a 3-room apartment in Moscow.
From public life Vavilov once and for all refused. Nevertheless, the yellow press occasionally invented various fables about the woman, because of which Natalia was very angry and even more removed from the world around her.
Gasparov became the first and only man for Vavilova. Together they lived 40 years and would have lived on, but in 2020, Samvel’s life was wiped out by the coronavirus. Now Natalia Vavilova plunged into seclusion. Relatives and friends support a woman who survived the death of her husband.
What a pity that Vavilova's career ended. We are sure that she could play dozens of successful roles. But fate ordered otherwise. I wish this woman strength and patience.
